Dr. Charles Frankel, MD

Dr Frankel has been my doctor since 2007. He's excellent, caring and I more than respect his knowledge and experience

What would you most value in your current physician? Kindness, empathy, patience experience, intelligence, availability, caring attitude? Well, those adjectives describe Dr. Frankel, a doctors' doctor who truly cares about his patients, who does not stare into his computer as he listens to your complaints, who gives you his full attention and does not watch the clock as he evaluates you. He cares enough to contact you with your results and to see how you are responding to treatment without your having to track him down. Dr. Frankel is one of a kind, and if you need a special gastroenterologist, he is definitely the one to see.

Dr Frankel is one of the best doctors I have.

Truly excellent in all ways

Very disappointing. The office does not answer the telephone.

The worst doctor and very unprofessional

Very rude unprofessional person who makes appointment. Next to impossible to make an appointment. Doctor differentiate an accommodate wealthy patients. Make people with medí care waiting for a long time. Could not diagnose my problem, even after several unnecessary and harmful tests.

I was very impressed. Dr. Frankel listened to me and as a result had 2 tests run on me. One was done a week ago, the other yesterday. How surprised I was when 6:00 p.m. rolled around this evening (a Saturday) and he called me with the results. He said I have options for some of my symptoms and will discuss them in depth when I see him in 2 weeks. He answered many of my questions and was very knowledgeable about the contents of copies of reports I gave him regarding tests I had taken in the past. He was interested and caring. I am grateful to my internist for recommending him.

Excellent I was very impressed with his professional manner and he seriously took the time to discuss all of my issues before recommending medical treatment.

It amazes me how caring, responsive and knowledgeable Dr Frankel is, after having an endoscopy my results were scary but Dr Frankel was with me every step of the way answering all questions always there. He called me several times to check on me and because of his skills I am doing great. All physicians should be like this. No matter where I move I will always return to Santa Monica for my check ups.

He is superb for me. Very gentle, reassuring during the colonoscopy prep, and he follows up well when needed. I sense what other doctors have said about him: He is very dedicated to his work. The anesthesiologist he has brought has also been the best at comforting my anxiety about the procedure. The Cedars doctors have all been excellent. And they are out front with communication systems that allow easy access to the doctors. This is rare. I trust Charles Frankel completely.
